- In this episode, we visit the World’s Largest Salt Works in Guerrero Negro. Enjoy the ride with us!
Though it can be confused with snow, its salt. And its landscape of white and pink tones, right on the Pacific Ocean, is thrilling to see.
But besides all that, it is the largest salt works in the world, located where the two Baja Californias meet.
Guerrero Negro is in the municipality of Mulegé, Baja California Sur. Of its approximate population of 16,000 people, 1,600 work at Exportadora de Sal. The company was founded in 1954, when Daniel Ludwig, builder of the hotel Acapulco Princess, set up the salt works to supply the western coast of the United States with salt.
The salt works stretches over 33,000 hectares of the Ojo de Liebrecoastal lagoon. It produces seven million tons of salt a year, which flavor dishes all around the Pacific basin: Japan, Korea, Taiwan and New Zealand, as well as the U.S.and Canada.
All that is needed is water, wind and salt, since it is extracted by evaporation. Ocean water is enclosed in concentration pools, and the sunshine and wind crystallize it, yielding 99.3% pure salt.
This company represents 34% of the world market. In addition to table salt, the salt works produces industrial salt for softening water, caustic soda-chlorine, salt for melting ice on roadways and sodium hypochlorite for drinking water purification.
What’s more, every winter whales and resident and migratory birds make their way to the Ojo de Liebre Lagoon, as do tourists from the U.S. and Europe.
The gray whales the major attraction: about 2,000of the cetaceans make the journey from the Arctic, over 6,200 miles. They find Guerrero Negro waters ideal formating and reproducing.
These great big visitors are so important that the government has named Ojo de Liebreagray whale sanctuary, and the Unesco declared it a World Heritage site.

Fantastic opening shot!
Good morning Damian! Thank you very much for watching and commenting! 🙏❤😊👍😉👋
Wow che bella l stonata finale! Sarebbe stato bello che ce ne fosse una anche all'inizio, per cominciare il video. Così si ha un'idea precisa e una panoramica del posto che anticipa emotivamente il racconto, e poi si entra nel cuore dell'argomento .
Questo video ed anche quello che abbiamo appena pubblicato, inizia con una dronata come dici tu!
Thanks for visiting us in Guerrero Negro. We hope that you have had an amazing experience. Come in whales season from December to April.
We had a great time in Guerrero Negro and in Baja California. Now we are heading south to Argentina but we hope to be able to come back in the future!! Thanks for watching and commenting!!
That end aerial footage was beautiful 😊💕
Wow, stunning drone footage, so beautiful! ❤
I love your informative videos. This is so interesting. The strangest thing is in the US we add fluoride to water but in Costa Rica they add it to salt.
We need more Luca charm in our lives, the eye brow raise. Besos y abrazos
Beautiful place guys enjoy
Hey Esli! Thank you very much for watching and commenting! 🙏❤😊👍😉👋
Amazing video. Thanks.
Fantastic video
Very informative. The ending was very beautiful.
Great video guys!..
Che luce pazzesca, come sulla neve...
Si sembrava neve o ghiaccio!
I wonder if the large harvesting equipment was actually manufactured in Mexico ?
Hi!! thank you for watching the video. The guide told us that the 2 large harvesting machines were manufactured in Mexico yes.
@@leaw I find that interesting. You don't often hear about large scale manufacturing from Mexico. Thank you.
@@TravelswithYoly yes is hard to believe but you should see the bucareli agreement from 1923 and you'll find out why Mexico doesn't manufacture great machinery or technology.
Buenisimo compañeros.
Muchissimas gracias :)
Great, interesting Vlog!! 👍🏻
Bravo! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you so much!!
Wow!
Amazing and instructional video. Learned something new today. Just one thing that I observed in your videos, your camera keeps going in and out of focus frequently.
You are right, we need to change our camera and the lens! thanks for watching!
Hey I realize it was awhile ago that you were there but wondering how you arranged to go into the salt flats?
I am doing a project about salt and wondering if you can find a guide in Guerrero Negro?
Really enjoyed your story!
WOW
Thank you
